Twelvefold Lower-Belly Breathing

     “Twelvefold Lower-Belly Breathing is the quickest and most effective way for our awareness to enter and inhabit our empty, open, primordial ‘core.’ It is this use that makes it so helpful for any kind of Pure Awareness practice and to address physical and emotional ill-health of all kinds. … in traditional Tibet, this practice was considered the only doctor you needed with you in long, solitary retreats.”
